  1. My bad I thought yours was spelled Redding Thomas Penn founded Reading Pa. In 1752 and chose the name READING for my Reading , named after his county seat in Reading Berkshire England . I knew of Thomas Penn Reading Pa founded in 1751 I always thought your READING was spelled REDDING . learn something new everyday : ?)
  2. You tell me Do they ? Some Farmers CAN do some pretty amazing magic tricks Once one made my girlfriend disappear at least , I thought he did. Until I found out She snuck out the back door to meet him out in the field. Why you ask ? He wanted to plant his seed. hahaha snickerssnicker chortlechortle chortle Some Magicians of course grow Triticale But The Magicians I know prefer growing Sorghum : ? )
  3. If you're meaning effects Bass to DARKGLASS B7kv2 to boss 50B to amp I don't really need to use both effects The boss alone gives me a sound I like But I when I do both effects the B7kv2 gives my sound and an extra punch and better distortion than the boss by itself. The B7kv2 is a badass Preamp I'm starting to use it without the boss . I'm not alot of effects kind of Bass player My fingers are the effect I used for years But of course fingers have limitations : ? ) If you didn't mean effects Exactly what do ya mean signal chain We call alot of the same things completely different from UK to USA. Maybe what you call a signal chain isn't the same as what I call a signal chain. : ? ) Strings I use roundwounds GHS BASS BOOMERS (LIGHTS) and ROTOSOUND 66 SWING BASS standard
  4. I think nobody actually sets out to intimidate other musicians or in life. I think PEOPLE ( GET) INTIMIDATED ALOT More than People want to be intimidating Anyone trying to intimidate someone else . Is an insecure basshole , lose the b
  5. I have a 4 string A/E I've been playing 5 & 6 stringers (Bass) for a long time I got my 1st 5 string IBANEZ ROADSTAR II in like 1984 and never looked back I also bought a KRAMER XL8 string in 1978 Damn time flies It got stolen 2 yrs later. I like 6s but My favorites are definitely 5s I play my 4 string acoustic bass every day. I'm a metal player also Always have been Playing The 4 str makes me remember no matter how many strings First and foremost They're are all still BASSes
  6. The courage and passion to not only think it may be possible and then Practice , practice , practice , then more practice . until the possiblity becomes reality. then Charlie Hunter Maybe he's a savant. : ?) Or a proof of God Savants like blind severely autistic 13 yrs old able to play piano as good or better than most master pianists Lucy is a Proof of God
  7. Topic is more statement I wish there was a Bass only event in Pennsylvania I live in a city called Reading pronounced the same as Redding I've never heard of anything like that here . : ?(
  8. I use alternative bass tuning alot Drop D Drop A Drop C Drop B is crazy low but I like it
  9. I actually have big respect for guitar players that are crazy talented and more times than not I find it's a guitar player that gives me goosebumps and gets me thinking outside the bass box. Right now I'm listening to ALOT of Andy James , a extraordinary guitar player has given me alot of new ideas on bass. I also think his Bassist not the FFDP bass player , in 2017 Craig Dulles played bass with A.J.solo live in Paris (YouTube ) He's my favorite kind of Bass player. A straight forward style nothing fancy He's a true BASS player. He's not a very popular Bass player. But his playing style is a style I abandoned years ago. It is the perfect compliment to my technicality. I've been playing Bass since I was 15 yrs old . I'm going to turn 63 on February 18th I've played everything from classical to jazz through Punk and prog metal . Sometimes it takes a guitar player to give me new ideas to try on my bass. Have a good one C.C.
  10. That is wild I've never heard of lava guitars
  11. Never heard the song before a minute ago Rebecca J. sounded good. A great jazz /blues / rBass player and a good friend of my family and he was hired to be the producer for the THRASH band I was in in the 90s i thought he toured with the temptations a few times but he toured with the 3 degrees. For being a jazz/blues/r&b bassist I wasn't worried about getting buried in the mix Bennie Sims did that THRASH band right The release titled DISRESPECT has been released in a few countries and is still selling 30 yrs later Not many though : ?) Have a good one C.C.
  12. A few years ago I was ready to have a triple neck bass a 4 string a 6 string .a 12 str made by luthier near me. The design was finished , I wanted a bass that would be my signature bass. The luthier said if I wanted him to make it He could and would. 2 wks later he said if he could he would But He can't so he won't Flats on the,4 string rotosound swing bass custom gauge on the 6 string. I was gonna Frankenstein the 12 str. I never got a reason as to his change of mind There ya go a bass that would have had flats and rounds I lost interest in a 3 neck soon enough
  13. I wonder if he lost his home to the wildfires They are all living in a different reality than us. that's for sure. California is somewhere I will not go - L.A. is a shite show- Beverly hills got lucky I don't think they lost much to fires ,I could be wrong malibu - palisades and more are pretty much not there anymore . ALOT of Hollywood elite lost everything.
  14. I must have misinterpreted your replies If so My apologies No harm no foul
  15. Im not arguing with ? I'm giving a him dose of his own medicine 'IM not the kind of person that gets upset enough to argue with someone . I honestly don't know what they are referring to when replying to me No . They're not ? over and over and over I really couldn't care less about I saw his reply "Id stay away from talkbass if I was you" lol What ? TF
  16. There's a few Bass players I've seen on YouTube , I'm a Bass player always and forever, I do play guitar also , but rarely , I think I played my guitar 2 times in 2024 . I play my A/E bass at least a few hours every single day. I rent a , I call it the LOUD place , It's where I turn my Marshall bass rig volume up and up more. It's a vicious 600w Marshall bass head top can 4 /10 s and bottom cab had 2 15s originally I switched the 15s out and put 2/18s in . Its LOUD and for 20 + yrs of getting abused it still sounds like a new amp I play HeaVy fast and as loud as possible What can I say I'm not just a MeAtElHeAd I'm metal 1st. Anyway many times I bring a guitar player to my LOUD room , we'll drink a few beers I'll play guitar , guitar plays bass. It's always the same.Im a pretty good guitar player for a bass player. And guitar players always every time play guitar on my bass . They always think their killin it on bass , I like a Bass to sound like a BASS . Not many guitar players I know are what I would call a good BASS PLAYER. they're good guitar players , really good. BASS is the easiest instrument to play . ALOT of guitar players have no clue what a good bass player can do. They quickly find out when they jam with me. ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ I'm not conceited in any way shape or form But I am some say brutally Honest I'm a proud to be a BASS PLAYER BASS PLAYER. : ?) Have a good one everyone C.C.
